  • About the Guest

  • I met a couple who lead a stepfamily small group in their church alongside his ex-wife and her new husband. You heard me right. The ex-spouses and new spouses teach the program together. How'd they get there? Well, the stepmom felt called by the Holy Spirit to buy her husband's ex-wife a Christmas gift. Eventually the two women became friends and everything improved on both sides. Having a big heart is essentially a choice to move past petty insecurities, not build walls, and soften your heart.

Ron: Some people are easy to love; others…not so much.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: I met a couple who lead a stepfamily small group in their church alongside his ex-wife and her new husband. Yeah, you heard me right. The ex-spouses and new spouses teach the program together. How’d they get there? Well, the stepmom felt called by the Holy Spirit to buy her husband’s ex-wife a Christmas gift. Eventually this paid off and the two women became friends. Then everything improved on both sides even to the point of teaching a class together.

You know, having a big heart is essentially a choice to move past petty insecurities, stop building walls, and soften your heart. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
